You understand Clean Architecture principles and can identify and resolve performance bottlenecks before they hit production. * Agile Mindset: You're comfortable with the iterative nature of a growing product and can thrive in a sprint-based environment., * Experience: Multiple years of commercial experience in back-end development; at least 5 years with .NET C#. * Core: At least 2-3 years with .NET 6+ / .NET 8+, Entity Framework Core, LINQ, SQL Server, and asynchronous programming. * Data & Persistence: You are proficient with Entity Framework Core (code-first approach) and have experience managing relational databases (primarily SQL Server) including schema design and query optimisation. * Architecture & Patterns: You have a firm grasp of Clean Architecture and Domain-Driven Design (DDD). You advocate for decoupled systems using Dependency Injection and modular monolith or microservices patterns. * Identity & Security: You have hands-on experience implementing JWT, OAuth2, and OpenID Connect, specifically using Azure Entra or Duende IdentityServer to build secure, identity-aware applications. * DevOps & Tooling: Azure DevOps for task management (Boards) and maintaining CI/CD Pipelines. You understand how to use Docker for containerising services. * Testing & Quality: You prioritise code reliability by writing unit and integration tests using xUnit, and you utilise FluentValidation to ensure data integrity across your APIs. * Performance & Monitoring: You know how to profile applications and implement structured logging using Serilog, integrated with Application Insights for real-time monitoring. Valued Technical Stack * Complexity: Previous work on high-traffic / consumer-facing apps or apps with complex business logic. * Cloud: Experience with cloud platforms (Azure preferred - App Services, Functions, Key Vault, Service Bus, Cosmos DB, etc.). * Platform: Knowledge of orchestration (Kubernetes). * Messaging: Experience with message brokers (RabbitMQ, Azure Service Bus, Kafka). * NoSQL: Familiarity with NoSQL databases (Cosmos DB). * Front-end: Basic understanding of front-end technologies (to better collaborate with UI teams) ## Description We have a proven concept and a solid foundation, now, we need a Mid-level Back-End Developer with strong .NET expertise to join our engineering team and help design, build, and maintain robust, scalable server-side applications and APIs that power our products and services. You will work closely with product managers to translate complex requirements into clean, maintainable, and performant code, solving complex business problems, and collaborating in an agile environment., In this role, you will be a core contributor to our application lifecycle. You will: * Build & Iterate: Design, develop, and maintain high-quality back-end services, RESTful/GraphQL APIs, and microservices using .NET. * Storage: Work with relational databases (primarily SQL Server) - design schemas, write efficient queries, and optimise performance. * Data Access: Implement data access layers using Entity Framework Core. * Auth: Build and integrate authentication & authorisation mechanisms. * Collaborate: Work within a loose Agile/Sprint framework, contributing to storyboarding and regular sprint planning meetings, and work closely with front-end developers, QA engineers, and product owners to deliver end-to-end features. * Code Quality: Implement clean, maintainable, and automated code testing following Clean Architecture principles and current best practices. * Performance: Identity and resolve performance bottlenecks, security issues, and production incidents. * Documentation: Help maintain technical documentation for APIs and services (Swagger / OpenAPI). ## Related Videos - [Leveraging Real time data in FSIs](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/806-leveraging-real-time-data-in-fsis) - [Keeping applications secure by evolving OAuth 2.0 and OpenID Connect](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/100152-keeping-applications-secure-by-evolving-oauth-2-0-and-openid-connect) - [Docker Compose: Rediscovered](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1978-docker-compose-rediscovered) - [Architectures that we can use with .NET](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/935-architectures-that-we-can-use-with-net) - [NoSQL Data Modeling for Front-end Developers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/297-nosql-data-modeling-for-front-end-developers) - [Meet Your New BFF: Backend to Frontend without the Duct Tape](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/682-meet-your-new-bff-backend-to-frontend-without-the-duct-tape) ## Related Articles - [What Are The Top Skills Required For Azure Developers?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/77-what-are-the-top-skills-required-for-azure-developers) - [Why Upskilling And Reskilling is Important For Developers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/428-why-upskilling-and-reskilling-is-important-for-developers) - [7 Most Popular Web Developer Jobs in Europe](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/163-7-most-popular-web-developer-jobs-in-europe) - [The Most Popular IT Jobs on the Market](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/376-the-most-popular-it-jobs-on-the-market) - [What’s the Difference Between Frontend and Backend Development?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/240-what-s-the-difference-between-frontend-and-backend-development) - [Is Software Engineering Over-Saturated?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/418-is-software-engineering-over-saturated)
